I really like this place. I am gluten intolerant so this place really hits home with all of the gluten free options. I have had various gluten free (GF) pizzas here, the GF fries mozzarella, their GF cheesesteak is really good too! Additionally the people that work in the restaurant, as well as the folks who drink and dine here are very nice and open to conversation. This place feels like (and is) a neighborhood bar and restaurant which is becoming rarer in this area. Check it out!

Iykyk. And if you don’t, read this: colony grill is a sports bar that serves pizza and beer and pretty much nothing else, because what else do you really need anyway? It’s a chain that expanded out of CT and that’s just how it be. The pizza is thin crust “bar pie” style, i.e., you eat it sitting at the bar with a slice in one hand and a beer in the other - it’s light, chewy and foldable, but not floppy NY-style. Ask for the pie well done if you want it crunchy for dine-in, or half baked if you’re taking it home so you can finish it in your own oven. Do get hot oil on your pie. Don’t get too many other toppings; crust is thin and this is not meant to be a loaded/supreme situation. Plus thats how you’d make your meal expensive real quick. Service at this location is friendly and attentive. Vegan and gluten free options available.

The best ice cream and milkshake! Lots of vegan and gluten free options. Lovely atmosphere. We will certainly come back!

Extremely delicious food! Was in the town for the weekend and stopped in for brunch because I saw this restaurant was exclusively plant-based. I got the gluten-free savory waffles (under the brunch menu waffles 2 ways) which could quite easily be the tastiest breakfast I’ve ever had. Was able to eat outdoors and enjoy the weather too ☀️ Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back and try some more!

Always a great selection, including Gluten Free, and a friendly staff. The seasonal bagels are fun too!

I was looking for a healthy breakfast after my cycle workout and this was absolute perfection. I had the avocado toast with lox (they even have gluten free options, which I had) with a smoothie. It was delightful and the ambiance is super fresh. Go experience it for yourself :-)

Best pizza outside of NY! Amazing gluten free pizza too!

Victor Weiss

Only gf/vegan sauce they had was Sriracha... It's prob worth investing in a few bottles of gluten-free soy sauce, no? Would be nice if they had a vegan pho on the menu too. There was a literal mouse in the house and some hair in my noodles; it might be time for the four sisters to #stepitup

The lady who served me was very nice and helpful inregars to my dietary restrictions (dairy,gluten) and the food was yummy ! I don't really write reviews but I felt inclined after how nice the service was !

Nichole Ford

My experience was amazing! I have a lot of things I shouldn't be eating, but gluten is definitely one of them. I am extremely happy with all of the gluten free options, the pasta and burger my husband shared was incredible! Thank you Kevin for the fantastic service! We will be back again for sure 😃

Met up with a friend here since it was a mid-way point between DC and Manassas and she needed gluten free options. Hadn't been here since pre-COVID, but it is still awesome! Service was great, food options are plentiful, and all the dog-named menu items are always fun. Melted Brie on sandwiches are sooo good. And my friend said the GF crust on her pizza was the best she's had. (BTW, if we could get a Prince William County location that would be GREAT)

Great dinner! First time at Thompson’s which had a great selection of gluten free salads, pastas and dessert! The homemade gf pasta was the best I ever had! The gf lemon cheesecake was amazing- first time I loved the crust! Can’t wait to be back!

Thomas & Elyse West-Bates

Beautiful views, top-notch service and delicious food! Wide variety of gluten-free options and servers were very knowledgeable.

Caren Loch

Always great food and service. Even found us in the lobby to return a phone that had fallen on the booth. Great gluten free options too.

Jonah Williams

Great food and service as well as gluten free options. We will be back!

Greg MARTIN

Great salads and burgers! Extensive gluten free menu. Service was great. Can't wait to go back.

First time dining here. Great dog friendly porch. Had a fabulous lunch/brunch. They have multiple gluten free options on the menu. Service was great and staff went out of their way to make sure our dog had it's own water bowl and shady spot to get out of the sun. The food was terrific. I had a breakfast bowl with pork bbq. Huge portion that I couldn't finish. Can't wait to come back for Supper!

Stopped in on our way to Nashville. The food was great and they were able to accommodate gluten free. The soup of the day was broccoli cheddar and it was delicious! The fruit was fresh. The sandwiches were so yummy. The staff was super friendly and the atmosphere was nice. Had a friendly small town feel. We would definitely come back and might on our way back through! There was a gluten free brownie I was eying in their dessert case 🤤🫶

Jenna Tong

Pretty loud atmosphere and seating is first come first serve. But the food was good enough that I'd eat here again. I got the bacon breakfast sandwich on a gluten free biscuit and was so surprised the biscuit was so tasty, even my 4 year old liked it!

This place was so good. I got the confused mac and cheese. I've tried mac and cheese at every place ive been to that had it and this was definitely in my top 3 if not the best. Chicken, bacon, ghost pepper cheese, Monterey jack and parmesan. I had them do half the amount of ghost pepper cause I just like some spice and it was perfect amount. The wife got the clubhouse turkey sandwhich with sweet potatoe fries and they were both so good. She's dealing with lymes disease and they have gluten free option for the bread so it was perfect. Will definitely be going back to try the Philly Cheesesteak.

Having worked in both coffee and customer service before, I can truly say that Cafe Stella's is a gem anywhere and a staple in Norfolk. My friends and I celebrated a birthday at Stella's tonight, and happened to interact with both of the owners. It warmed my heart to see a business where the owners are so hands on in leading their staff and making a difference in the community. I learned that the cafe offers gluten free options and has a special order bakery. I can't wait to try their gluten free baked goods during my next visit—if they're anything like the espresso, I know they'll be delicious. Thank you for hosting me and my friends!

Take a long time, but staff is friendly. Gluten free crust is good.

I have a new found eating place. Being celiac, there are not many options for noodle dishes, but omgosh, I had an amazing meal finally, pasta and grilled chicken with alfredo sauce,and I even got an extra to go and a rice crispy treat that was so big and 😋 😋 yummy

This place has hands down some of the best pizza I've had. The gluten free pizza is amazing too-- the crust is buttery and crispy. But the toppings and cheese are the best part-- if you order steak on your pizza they load it up with meat that is super high quality. The homemade pizza sauce, delicious pull-apart cheese, and perfectly baked crust are top notch. The prices are reasonable and the portions are huge. The service is also very friendly. I would highly recommend Lost Dog Cafe to anyone looking to get a bite to eat in the area.

Matt Catalano

Great local place with good beer rotating beer selections. Personal pizzas including gluten free with many speciality options. Main sandwich options seem to now not come with sides but servings are generous.

Lisa Noe

HIGHLY recommend this restaurant. We stopped during a middle school trip with World Strides at the end of our 3rd day (group of 50+ people). This was our best meal of the trip! We were exhausted and hungry. We walked in to pizza on the table ready for us and they brought out hot food trays as well- meat balls, Mac & cheese, huge salads, meat balls and pasta salad. Soda, lemonade and plenty of cold WATER to drink! Food was great and staff friendly. 2 in the party are celiac— they made them a pizza after arrival in a dedicated gluten free oven. They scarfed it down! Staff was also super friendly. Plenty of seating. We all dragged in but left happy and full. The outside area at the shops was fun for the teens to play and be kids again in the wobbly chairs. Check this place out for dinner and large groups as well! We were well accommodated.

excellent buffet. great gluten free options. optimal service. will return.

Amy May

I love the gluten-free option for the bagel with vegetarian sausage! Great customer service as well as coffee. I highly recommend.

Sean and Dana Flynn

Gluten Free pizza was not very good, way too much cheese caked on. Overall dishes were meh, not terrible but nothing special. The garlic knots were stale, just surprisingly terrible as it’s a basic Italian staple. There are better options not far away if you need the Italian food fix.

Pam Ryan

Supergirl restaurant with our awesome server Alondra. The atmosphere was super exciting and fun. We played pickle ball first across the street and then enjoy delicious margaritas and Mexican beers with delicious chips and dips. The ambience is really cool. We enjoyed eating outside. I am strict gluten-free with celiac and I was able to find a lot of delicious things to eat. It's a fabulous place to eat!

Neda Defibaugh

Got food from here with a friend allergic to gluten. Staff were friendly and helpful, and food was ready so quickly! Everything was delicious, and no hospital visits!

A Top 5-Star Brunch Experience at Sabores! A group of us organized a birthday brunch for a friend at Sabores, and it was an amazing experience! With a large party of 20, the Sabores team made it all feel effortless, allowing us to fully enjoy the celebration. As someone with celiac disease, dining out can be challenging, but Alex, Carlos, and Ernesto went out of their way to make sure I felt safe and included. They personally prepared a special dish for me—a perfectly cooked steak with a fresh salad—taking every precaution to prevent cross-contamination. They even brought my plate out separately, showing incredible attention to detail. Beyond that, my friends couldn’t stop talking about how delicious the food was. Everything was beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and served with great attention. The staff was attentive, kind, and efficient, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made the celebration even more special. Sabores offers gluten-free options on their menu, and they are very careful if you let them know about any allergies or dietary restrictions to ensure no cross-contamination. If you’re looking for a place with great food, excellent service, and a fun, inviting vibe, Sabores is definitely worth a visit! Highly recommended!

Great Gluten Free Pizza and good cheese pizza as well. Will definitely be back if I'm ever in the area!!!

Best Gluten Free Pizza in Virginia Beach!

The pita bread for appetizers was light and soft. Hummus trio was perfect, especially the spicy hummus. Kibbeh was very filling so maybe don't order it if you plan to order a full entree as well. I especially enjoyed my mouzat (slow cooked lamb leg with spiced rice). It was a lovely meal. Great service, the place is huge so there were many available seats, good food. They have lots of vegetarian and gluten free options. Highly recommended.

Caroline Cardoza

I loved it! Many gluten free options (celiac)

Elizabeth Jane Addington

Cannot speak more highly of Mejana. Ordered from them for my office’s staff lunch and there were options for everyone: vegetarian, gluten free, and meat. Prices are reasonable and portions are large. Staff is incredibly kind. Ordered from Grubhub for delivery, delivery was never confirmed by the 3rd party service, called the restaurant and they immediately said, “no worries, we will get to cooking and wait for the order to come in and call you when the order comes through and if a driver was assigned.” Mind you, this was Grubhub’s fault, not the restaurant! The hostess asked me to text them my order and texted me when it was ready since Grubhub wasn’t communicating with me. You can’t beat this kind of customer service. Love supporting this local, small-biz!

Great Thai food and great for gluten free food.
